- RogtamBar 10y agoA myth. How do you then explain the glaring over-representation in sciences, scientific awards received and so on? (about 10x) And that coincidentally Ashkenazi Jews outscore others on intelligence tests? Are they all cheating? Is that what you are trying to say?
- nickbauman 10y agoNot at all. The world Ashkenazi population has maintained cultural emphasis in the intellectual pursuits for centuries. I should know. I grew up with them. Their reverence for intellect and the life of the mind borders on the holy. If only more of us cared in the same way.
